I see kids doing it all the time now in u11’s level. So annoying. One lad did it (complete with scream) right in front of the group of parents, dad comes on the pitch referee had to tell him to get off. Right scene. The boy was absolutely fine and the little shit tried it again about 5 minutes later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rds1983 Posted July 10, 2021 VT Supporter Share Posted July 10, 2021 What's the longest an argument has ever lasted on VT before one side just gives in? Not including the debate about gravy on fish as that's just crazy talk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not including the debate about gravy on fish as that's just crazy talk. There are multiple threads offering multiple options of some of the best music on the planet. Music that can open up new worlds and get you feeling feels you never knew you could whilst keeping your trousers on. Music that let’s you glimpse the very essence of life, music that shows you the insecure inner thoughts of your fellow humans. Music that is nothing short of art. Music that might just be what some people define as spiritual. Yet there are still people that listen to Oasis between the adverts on Absolute FM. 1 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rds1983 Posted July 10, 2021 VT Supporter Share Posted July 10, 2021 Is anyone else a little bit scared of getting on the wrong side of @mjmooney and @chrisp65 or is that just me?

Only kidding guys... Don't come after me... Please. I'm sorry. Ah, absolutely not. Just testing ideas to see if they stand up to moderate scrutiny. I’ve learnt a lot on here and changed some of my opinions. So from that, I know it can feel quite tough to come to the point where you realise you were wrong on a particular talking point. So I’m just passing forward the good work of others. It’s all just chatter, none of us are real. But once people do know me in the real world, they can see I’m quite the Libertarian with people that think exactly like me. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was either that or saying ambulance for **** and I thought I'd let him lick his wounds. I've changed several opinions on here as well due to posts from several people on here including both you two. I agree with the two of you on a lot of what I see you write. I'm still wanting a holiday home though, you've not convinced me on that one (yet) but if my Dad can't I don't think anyone can.

I was in my car today, on the way back from Manchester. I was listening to TMS for a bit, it was drifting along, the cricket, so I put radio 6 on, but it was playing the crap stuff it does on a Saturday. 5Live, people tennising so of no interest to anyone sane. So next on the dial was absoluteFm. Neat MattBerry voiceover ident thingy, ok I’ll give it a listen. Some generic no doubt heavily rotated older song came on, then another one, then some advertisements, then “coming up next we’ve got a classic Q***n track”. F*** that, radio off double quick fast. I’ll not be making that mistake again. Phone on, Bluetooth, shuffle, Low and then the Lovely eggs. Brilliant, but now I’ve got an earworm and tinnitus back. Have you ever heard a digital accordian, a digital accordian…. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sidcow Posted July 10, 2021 VT Supporter Share Posted July 10, 2021 (edited) Do music snobs realise what rocket polishers the come across as? Like some modern art enthusiast liking really weird and probably pretentious pictures but thinking everyone else are idiots for liking stuff like Jack Vettriano just because the world has a print of his up in their living room and thinking they're so superior to all the other little people even though they just genuinely appreciate his paintings.

Popular Post chrisp65 Posted July 10, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted July 10, 2021 It’s the bit I like about VT, the knock about exploring of ideas and seeing what stands up to a little light scrutiny and what gets called out. I find it quite interesting. The nice thing about it here is the rules around the site, on not getting overly personal, on providing sources and quotes. Then if there is someone you just totally dislike, you can always use the ignore, which in a decade I think I’ve used on two or three people. We all have our prickly days, or days when we think someone is getting at us, that’s like human nature isn’t it. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
